This is the third album by Detlef Weinrich aka Tolouse Low Trax. Weinrich is a member of the Düsseldorf group Kreidler. He's already got three EPs and two albums under his belt. Jeidem Fall sounds like music brought down to earth from the heavens; however, it's a dark cosmos in which there are only fleeting glimpses of light. All eight tracks were composed in a short space of time over the period of just a few months and fit together perfectly atmospherically. With a musical expressiveness that undoubtedly twists your emotions, Jeidem Fall attacks the subconscious and clouds the mind. Alongside the constant tapping of drumsticks are melodic arpeggios dancing dark and dirty. At times, longing vocals drift abstractly through the room, as on "Sa Seline" or "Geo Scan," without telling any obvious story. Jeidem Fall really doesn't sound like anything that has gone before: you could compare the dark minimal timbre of the drum computer aesthetic with Craig Leon's first reductive album Nommos. There is also a hint of the minimalist industrial of the Spanish band Esplendor Geometrico in the bubbly textures. But Tolouse Low Trax is still looking from the present into the future and filters all his personal preferences through his MPC and his small synth set-up to make them come alive here and now in a new way. He has created a truly mysteriously vibrating drum computer music which offers hypnotic magic for the shadowy dance floor. Ideal for a journey at the end of the night and for all those non-places where longing sleeps and the last romantics dance while getting drunk.
